We're planning on using this more as a privacy shade as opposed to a sun shade. Can you see through this material?

Yes, but everything is blurred. The weave is somewhat open to allow air to flow through. I have a light beige material, but I think the darker color would limit the viability. I just went outside to see if you could see into the windows at night. Absolutely. Probably not a good choice for privacy.

You can't see clearly thru it. It depends on how much light is going thru it. We have it on the patio for the sun, and wish it was darker. For your purpose I think it would work. Home depot carries them, and Costco has a darker one. Hope this helped.

It would work great as a privacy screen. You might be able to see shadows through it but that's all. It really does block almost all the sun. We use it on a screened in deck to block the afternoon sun.

You could not see through though note-our tent was in the shade. We used as changing room for bride. Yes on the zipper!

As Cynthia said, you might be able to make out vague shapes and shadows, but it is not see-thru. It does provide privacy.

No, it is not see-through. The background is solid white. It would make a lovely, and completely secure, separator.

My answer would be: No First, its dark and not fully "see through" with total clarity as tinted window since its a synthetic based fabric with tiny holes. Secondly, it needs a window with near horizontal top edge, which most front windows aren't. You "could" use it but the experience won't be great.

It is not transparent at all. I use it for privacy in front of sliding glass doors in my bedroom. It lets the light in but still gives privacy. I really love my screen!

It's some kind of thick, strong synthetic fabric. Since it creates shade, i would think it blocks UV but I don't really know. Light does come through it, just softer and more muted.

Yes, the shade is that, shaded, however, you can see through it. In myopinion you can see out (child's view) than looking in through the net (you looking into the stoller). It's not super dark as when the sun shone on his stroller and into his eyes I had to move the canopy to block the sun. It was nice at that cabin on his pack 'n' play as it shaded the light inside a little bit.

though this sheet is fairly thick. If you have a light source behind it you will see through it

It is see through, but not clear as a window. I'd say it's about 50% opaque

The roof panels are translucent.............. so they will not provide complete shade; you will get diffused sunlight similar to the effect of frosted glass.

I think it could be used for that, there is plenty of room inside the netting for us. I thought the netting being black would make it hard to see through but it's very easy to see through and you have a very clear view of everything.

It isn't clear, but it isn't opaque either. You can see through it, but don't expect to be able to showcase anything with it on.

I'm going to say "yes".... sun light can pass through this material. The material isn't situated where I can test it with sunlight, but I put a 100 watt bulb behind a panel, and I could see the outline of the bulb, and the light within. Both sides are the same. I hope this helps you.

You will not feel a direct breeze through this material, but you will not feel like it is suffocating either. You can slightly see through the material. We use it on the top of our chicken run to block the hot southern sun and we also use it on top and behind our yard swing. It gives us breathable shade.

It's not see thru. If you put your hand against it, you can see it from other side and maybe if a light is shining behind, you could see shadows.

YES... privacy and blocks the sun too. I really like it and it is NOT cheap looking like some I have seen.
